The Matilija Poppy was almost the California state flower. It is a beauty and hard to believe its a poppy! It is sometimes referred to as the Fried Egg Poppy.

#1 I really should of gathered seeds from these.

The whole hillside has apartment buildings now. The park is long gone.

I guessed wrong but these are lovely blooms. Your son doesn’t look half bad with that flower behind his ear now all he needs is a girl with a flower behind her ear.

  Not one person guessed white on this one Sandra. I will tell him what you said, because I totally agree.

  True, so clean and nice. Speaking of your colors, I have heard about looking at the world through rose colored glasses, but I want some of what you wear!!
